The stockings were hung by the chimney with care

Town Square Mini Stocking 

Funky Angel Mini Stocking

Shelley Tribbey Mini Stocking

Stocking for Kitty Sam
 And so it begins.  Kicking off the Christmas season with the hanging of the stockings.  I don't remember the designer for the Town Square mini stocking but I do remember that Kimberly Smith at The Needleworks did the stitch guide.  I can not remember the designer for the Funky Angel stocking.  I chose the stitches and threads for that one with some help from Susan Burris.  I also chose the threads and stitches for the Shelley Tribbey and last, but not least, basketweaved(sp?) the little stocking for Kitty Sam.  I think it is a Petei, but not sure.  Kitty Sam went to heaven at least six years ago, so you can only guess how old the stocking is.  All the finishing was done by Kim Hollifield.  Merry Christmas!

      Yes, I am. I guess that means you are on your feet. At least somewhat. Great news.

    Hi Steph,
    Love all your mini stockings. You have such a wonderful collection of Christmas decorations.
    Had a wonderful weekend with Amy and Tony. Amy delivered Betsy to me.

      I am so jealous. I bet y'all had the best time. Have you put Betsy on stretcher bars? I got some more thread for her at Colleen's sale on Saturday. I hope I have some time to work on her tonight. Can't wait to see your progress!

      Andra-I bought mine at The Needle Works here in Austin. I don't know if she is still available, but if she is I know Colleen would be happy to order it for you. Check out the store at theneedleworks.com. Good luck!
